This costume is actually pretty accurate if you look at the costume from the DC Harley Quinn comic book. So to say the least i wish they had it in my size to order!

It's many girls dream to be the evil villian's sidekick Harley Quinn. I bought this costume last year and when I removed it from the bag it just didn't look right. The sleeves were a different color from the cartoon character. As for the fit: it fits really small. I wear a size 3 dress size and the product said that if you wear a 2-6 dress size you're an XS. I bought the XS which didn't fit. I took it back to the store to exchange for a size larger. I got the small: it fit but it was super tight; I still had a hard time breathing in it. Ended up not wearing it due to the store not having it in Medium/Large. I ended up making my own and altered some of the accessories the costumes came with. I recommend if you wear a size 2-4 dress size to buy a Medium and 4-8 to buy the Large. Aside from all that the white collar on the costume does not fit right and needs adjustments to look good. I recommend sewing a snap button to the ends. As for the headpiece, buy extra stuffing to fill it in. It's flimsy. The gloves are too short so it's best to get your own black and red gloves or just go glove less and paint your nails. The boot covers were a terrible fit over shoes. I recommend buying a pair of black/red shoes or just wing tipped shoes. Last but not least: The Eye Mask: Most important part of the costume. The eye mask that comes with the costume is small and super irritating. The material is really rough and flakes at the edges. I recommend going to party city to buy a pair of fabric eye mask and cut the eye socket a bit bigger and trim the outside edges to the shape you'd like. This costume is pricer than it looks due to the costume/accessories not fitting right.
I would recommend it if you don't mind that the costumes color were placed incorrectly. Go ahead get the costume. It's fun to wear, but be sure to order a size larger and alter the accessories.

I got this costume last year for Halloween and got so many compliments everywhere.. It's a very unique costume, different from most short costumes that most women wear but yet very sexy. Although I'm 5'1 and weigh 100lbs, I have to say the small was a little snug but it was manageable.
Also, the collar is a little big and the eye mask pretty tight but nothing major that can't be fix. It's still worth the money!!

While most Harley fanatics would say this costume is innacurate, in most cases that is true. However this is the Gotham Girls version, that being said it is accurate to the Gotham Girls miniseries.

I didn't realize it when i ordered it but the sleeves on the costume are different than Harley Quinns actual costume. This made me sad, I didn't want to wear a costume that was inaccurate. So I pulled it apart, used the pieces as a pattern, bought my own material and remade it.
